DUDE!
apparently the buttered rolls and 17oz beers chased with the ever-present 10-12oz coke kept you going.
the rest was just in there to mix it up a bit right?
I bet you two stunk pretty after all that saddle time.
Nice post.
Q
Living the dream. Nice.
bad ass. um, we need drawings though, or interpretive dances. or the list of swear words you used when you got back on the bike every morning. did you chateau it up or was it USA stylie loaded touring with bags and tents and stoves and shit?
we chateaued it, or maybe roadside inned it. the weather was potentially dicey at the outset, so we opted for a bit lighter load. and definitely no need for a stove on this continent, unless you want to warm your socks in the mornings?!
strangely we were happy to get back on the bike each morning. but after a nice late lunch and towards the end of each day it was a bit of a different story.
